My device is Dopod 577w, if you used C600 or other device without WIFI, maybe you will get more Free Memory.
There is NO IME in this ROM, so you need to install T9 or xT9 after flashing.
The Short_AP1 ~ Short_AP4 are not defined, because SP5 and SP5m are different with those keys. If you don't know how to defined them, you can download the sp5.zip or sp5m.zip, and unzip it to \Windows, everything will be OK.
you can copy the startup.wav & shutdown.wav into \Windows directory, and then you will get boot sound and shutdown sound.
If you don't like the boot screen, you can change it in to what you want, The administrator login picture is \Windows\startup.jpg. The boot Animated Boot Screen is \Windows\WindowsOpen.gif, and the Animated Shutdown Screen is \Windows\WindowsClose.gif.
if you want to use Voice Command with BT headset, try this: MS Voice Command 1.6 BT over headset with latest wm6 ROM. Thanks for janp's contribution.

"This ROM only has OS & SplashScreen. NO IPL, SPL & GSM in it."
May somebody please explain this to me?
Am I supposed to separately flash IPL, SPL and GSM (whatever they are)?
What happens if I flash them or if I don't?

How to turn off Control Panel icons?

"Settings", on the WM6 cooked ROMs....
In particular some have the "Windows Update" icon (which will screw you hard if it works at all - hard reset time!) and others have the "Feedback" icon which does nothing.
They're not easily visible in the kitchens as LNKs or EXEs - does anyone know how to "depopulate" things from the settings that you don't want in there?

update
Im hitting this at the moment.
Most of them arre easy to change. .
HKLM>ControlPanel>Bluetooth> dword:"Group" = 6 (Or any number other than, 0,1,2) will remove it.
However like you've found, some of them aren't controllable like this. I'm trying to get the Update one as well. Just need to figure out where its stored.

for reference
For reference,
If you wanted to remove the "Buttons" app from the personall tab, your provisioning code would be.
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKLM\ControlPanel\Buttons">
<parm name="Group" value="6" datatype="integer" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
This moves it to the tab "6" which doesnt exist, so it doesnt display it.

Trying to write cab to change registry

Hi
Just a false noob question
My company blocked the lock functionality - I have to enter my 8 characters paswoord each 15 minutes and blocked acces to lock parameters
I installed a simple reg editor and find I have to change registry HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\00001023 to 1 to have acces to those parameters
Now I would like to write a cab to lock or unlock acces to the lock parameters
I tryed this but it doesn't work
What is wrong ??
THX
<Unlock_lock>
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies">
<parm name="00001023" value="1" datatype="integer" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</Unlock_lock>
----------------------------------------------------------
<Lock_lock>
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies">
<parm name="00001023" value="0" datatype="integer" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</Lock_lock>

assuming the key is the correct one for your purposes, try it without the "lock" references, or comment them so they remain for your edification.

WM6.5 popup menus are too big, how to make them smaller?

Hello!
I've asked this question under the rom I'm using, but I think this question does not necessarily belong there.
So, I ask it again here.
One of the changes in WM6.5 is the size of popup menus. How can we change it's size so it's more like in WM6
I'm sure I've seen menus with normal spacing between the options in WM6.5, but I can't remember what I did or if it was made in rom like that.
For example in messaging menu in WM6 it fits into screen, in WM6.5 we have to scroll it to see all the options. Changing popup menu font size (via advanced config) does not make spacing smaller, so in order to fit whole menu in inbox I have set font size to 500 which is waaaay too small.
Thanks.

The idea of 6.5 is to make everything more finger friendly. So to make it smaller would make it harder to press. My guess is that your going to want to see how you can change the system or context menu font. I don't know how that can be done, but my friend google can help.

I understand the reason it was done, but still such significant changes should not be done with possibility revert it the old style.
The font used there is Verdana, and I doubt it has so much extra spacing above and below (see screenshots above).
I refuse to believe that this question never discussed here and has no answer

Got a cab for that larger finger menu?

Use Advanced Config and change the Popup menu font size under User Interface.
I change mine from Large to Custom 800. See Picture below.

do you know how to make the menu scroll by page instead of item by item?

install and open total commander. go to \\\Plugins\registry\HKLM\System\GWE\Menu\Popfnt and there should be two dword values that you can change to whatever you like. "Ht" (height) which is default to 1000 and "Wt" (weight, boldyness) which is default to 700. fiddle with these all you like and see which best suits you. you have to soft restart after every change to see it. dont be shy with these, you can change them in 100 intervals and fine tune from there. i actually wanted mine a little bigger and thumb friendlier so i set ht to 1100 and wt to 800 and it was perfect for me.

Thanks a lot, it helped me perfectly!

The problem is the spacing.

The menu spacing is set in the .tsk files. There is a large reg entry you need to tweak: hkcu/software/microsoft/today/menu. I've got menus that work for people with non-ape sized fingers, and I like it, lol. Check my thread UI Tweaks for 6.5.1 in the fuze rom forum at fuzemobility for the reg entries in the last post <on fuze now, can't link>. This is much better than lowering the popfnt. There's also a fix for the ridiculous tree-spacing that makes Regedit nearly unusable.
I've uploaded the reg settings. Remove the string values for different themes. I've also uploaded a custom arad theme w/ the reg settings and my wallpaper <sorry, lol>. Change the extension to .tsk and put it in \windows (soft reset, too).

Glad to help, lol.

I was tempted to start a new thread for this, but rather than do that, I figured I would just add to this one.
As previously mentioned in this thread, the menu popup size and spacing is a little excessive with the newer builds of 6.5.x (I'm currently using 6.5.3 ported from the SDK). By comparing the tsk files from 6.5 and 6.5.3 I have found there are 5 registry changes responsible for this non-sense.
Code:
Windows Mobile 6.5.3
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Menu">
<parm name="MenuSelectorThemeImageTopPadding" value="18" datatype="integer" />
<parm name="MenuSelectorThemeImageBottomPadding" value="18" datatype="integer" />
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\ListView">
<parm name="ListViewSelectorThemeImageTopPadding" value="18" datatype="integer" />
<parm name="ListViewSelectorThemeImageBottomPadding" value="18" datatype="integer" />
<parm name="ListViewSelectorThemeImageRightPadding" value="17" datatype="integer" />
Windows Mobile 6.5
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Menu">
<parm name="MenuSelectorThemeImageTopPadding" value="10" datatype="integer" />
<parm name="MenuSelectorThemeImageBottomPadding" value="10" datatype="integer" />
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\ListView">
<parm name="ListViewSelectorThemeImageTopPadding" value="10" datatype="integer" />
<parm name="ListViewSelectorThemeImageBottomPadding" value="10" datatype="integer" />
<parm name="ListViewSelectorThemeImageRightPadding" value="6" datatype="integer" />
You can change them manually by editing the registry or you can use the updated tsk files attached to this post.
Furthermore you may want to update these other registry entries....
This entry controls the font size of the popup menu (mentioned early in this thread). The default value for Windows Mobile 6.1 is
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\PopFnt]
"Ht"=dword:320
Microsoft started using 3E8 instead of 320 a while ago, but I prefer the WM 6.1 default value of 320. For cooks, this is found in \SYS\Base_Lang_0409\831xxx.rgu. You may also find attempts to change this value in \OEM\OEMDrivers\.
Finally, as already mentioned, the Treeview settings were increased in WM 6.5.3. These values are complete new entries that did not exist in WM 6.5. They can safely be deleted or set to 0.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Commctrl]
"TreeviewPlusMinus"=dword:1c
"TreeviewExtraItemSpace"=dword:14
TreeviewPlusMinus controls the size of the plus/minus symbol and TreeviewExtraItemSpace adds space between tree entries. Deleting or setting both entries to zero sets things back to the way they were in WM 6.1 & 6.5.
To use the attached tsk files, rename them from *.cab to *.tsk and copy to \Windows

Yes! I'v been looking for this.
Thanks.

Calendar font and hour line
Tweaks for resizing popup menu works fine. Have anybody idea how to decrease the hour lines in the defalut Calendar? For me its too big... :-/

Why don't you just use EITHER Resco Explorer or SGS Explorer ?

WHY are there always people writing stupid posts ?
Someone asks how to delete a regsitry key IN A CAB, because he wants do that IN A CAB.
Period.
Why he wants to do that is none of your business, if you're unable to understand the point of it. He asked a question, he didn't ask to be suggested to do something totally pointless instead.
Nobody asked you to suggest to do it by hand, because he wants it to be AUTOMATED. This is pure trolling, and I'm tired to death to always trip on those stupid "answers" when searching the net for real answers to very precise questions. The web is actually FULL of that, and it becomes harder and harder to get useful information because of your silly behavior.
Please stop flooding, and answer only when you have something to say that is related to the question (or ask a real question, of course).
I'm sorry, but you just paid for all the others !
